Subject: bug#6673: [PATCH] only build libstdbuf.so when stdbuf is enabled
Date: Mon, 19 Jul 2010 20:51:38 -0400

Currently, only main programs (like stdbuf) can be disabled at configure
time.  Helper programs (like libstdbuf.so) do not have a configure option.

Even if you disable stdbuf with the configure option, libstdbuf.so will
still be compiled and installed.  So delay the parsing of helper programs
until after we know the final enable list, and then only build libstdbuf.so
when stdbuf is also enabled.
